》Michael《
Ivonne called and said that Olive would be discharged in an hour.
We drove up to the hospital in a limousine... I called Ivonne when I saw them in the exit
M: See the black limousine?
I: Yes
M: Is there a guy in a black suit standing in front of it?
I: Yes
M: Black?
I: Yes.
M: Then get in.
Ivonne and Olive got into the limousine
- You didn't have to... - She started
- Ivonne, we had to, because we all wouldn't have fit into any other car - I replied - Yeah... You probably know my daughters, don't you?
- Yes
- This is Susan. Mia's Girlfriend - I introduced my daughter's fiancée
Bill hit the road.
- Nice to meet you - Ivonne replied - Where are we going?
- If I wanted to kidnap you, I wouldn't go in a limousine. - I replied jokingly
- And where really?
- To Neverland... There is an answer to your question from 3 days ago
- Ok...

When we arrived, Mia and Susan took Olive to their bedroom to talk to her, and I took Ivonne to my office
- Ivonne, have you worked since you got married with Davis?
- No, I was just training... Why, you ask?
- Because I have a suggestion. - I took employment contract out of my desk - Would you like to work on my next album?
- Yes... But will it change something between us?
- What you mean?
- Now we're on the same page. Will this change?
- No.
- Why are you offering me a job?
- I killed your husband, depriving you of your livelihood. I want to help you.
- And you don't care about sex at all?
- Is it a provocation?
- And showbiz doesn't work like that?
- It seems to work, but I'm not going to participate in it. Besides, I have a wife.
- Having a wife doesn't contradict having mistresses.
- Ivonne, you don't have to worry about that. I'm not looking for a lover, I'm looking for a dancer.
》Mia《
While Dad was talking to Ivonne, we were taking care of Olive.
- Olive, listen - Susan began - I know exactly how you feel
- How?
- I've experienced the same thing... almost
- What does almost?
- My mother's lover, so that I wouldn't have evidence against him, used a sex toy...
- Does it mean that the life of the famous is not perfect?
- Don't ask me about fame... ask Mia or Alish
Olive looked at me and Alishia
- You're right, it's not perfect. Before I got engaged with Michael, Joseph forced me to have a relationship with him... He raped me regularly... I probably wouldn't have freed myself from him if it hadn't been for Michael... - Alishia stated
- My dad's ex-lover wanted to kill me - I added as I saw Olive look at me
- Alishia - Olive began - Thank you for saving me...
- Do you remember the previous kidnapping?
- Yes... What does that have to do with anything?
- While working on this case, I met Michael...
- I envy you - Olive turned to Susan and me
- Why? - Susan asked
- My mother will kill me if I tell her I prefer girls
- Mine kicked me out of the house - Susan stated
- Why don't we go to the living room? Dad and your mom are about to go down there, so you're going to tell her in front of us... Maybe she won't kill you in front of us - I suggested to her
》Michael《
I led Ivonne into the living room, where the girls were already sitting
Olive sat between Mia and Susan (which was odd to me because they wouldn't be separated by anyone) and rested her head on Mia's shoulder
- And how about Olive? Feeling better?
- I guess so... Mom, I've got to tell you something
- What?
- I... I don't want to ever get married to a man
- After what he did to you, I understand
- That's not why... I prefer girls
- Olive, are you sure? Surely it's not because he hurt you?
- No... Mom, I've been feeling it for a few years now... I was just afraid to say it
- Why? Baby girl, you don't have to be afraid of me... I've experienced rejection from my mother because of being bi, so I understand exactly what you expected
- You're bi?
- Yes.
- Are you telling me that there's no straight person in this room? - she asked
- What about you? - Ivonne asked
- I don't know who I am.
***
Ivonne and Olive stayed with us for the night...
